Title: My 2012 condor build
Post by: Mdbh on May 11, 2012, 05:26 PM
Well I've had the frame for about a month and have been scratching my head on what colour to do forks and bars I went for chrome bars and I want chrome forks Havant had time to do it so just painted them today coz I'm sick of not riding! There not perfect match but with a decal or 2 they ok for me I will trash them anyway!, will update pics and full spec when it's finished! Should be finished by the end of the weekend! So watch this space :daumenhoch:
